Nikita Kucherov is trying to turn it around

Tampa Bay Lightning RW Nikita Kucherov scored his second goal of the season on Tuesday night, but the Tampa Bay Lightning fell to the Nashville Predators by a score of 5-4. Nashville came back from multiple deficits to force overtime, then won in a shootout. (NHL.com)

Fantasy Impact:

Kucherov was one of the shooters for Tampa Bay in the shootout, but he was unable to score. That has been a theme for Kucherov this year, as he has two goals and zero assists through seven games. This is a very poor start to the season for Kucherov, considering he tore it up with 29 goals, 36 assists, and a +38 rating just last season.
